About Me

I was born and grew up in İzmir. I study medicine in Manisa, Celal Bayar University. I speak fluent English (and not to mention Turkish). I define myself as an open-minded young woman who is willing to improve oneself day by day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's great to meet new people and exploring new places. Hosting and guiding people in town will be good experience for me and also learning about their culture. While I'm being hosted earning from locals about the place would also be very fun.

Interests

I like reading books, a lot. Biking, playing tennis, camping are other things I enjoy. I also like reading science articles and watching documentaries.
I'm fond of taking photographs.

Music, Movies, and Books

I generally listen to classic and progressive rock but enjoy listening to different kinds of music,too. Pink Floyd, Blackfield, Simon&Garfunkel, The Smiths, Queen, Black Keys are the ones that come to mind when thinking about bands. Fikret Kızılok, Bülent Ortançgil, Zeki Müren, Tanju Okan are my favourite Turkish singers.
I like reading utopia-dystopia books such as Brave New World, Fahrenheit 451. Another favourite ones from my library are Lolita, When Nietzsche Wept, East of Eden, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (which is also a great movie), God Delusion.
Sabahattin Ali is my favourite Turkish writer and I love all of his books.
I am fond of Stanley Kubrick movies such as The Shining, Full Metal Jacket, 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange. Taxi Driver, Kill Bill vol.1 and vol.2 , Dans la Masion are other ones.
